Almada13 Porto

Perfect gifts!

Sofia from Porto

About me Even though I’m a genuine ‘Portuense’ (meaning born and raised in Porto), my mother’s side of the family comes from Switzerland and my father's side from England, a great mixture don’t you think? Adding to my multiculturalist environment, I’ve worked abroad for a few years in Angola and Slovakia. Travelling far away at least once a year is my biggest passion. Life taug...
""Almada13" is a big Porto concept store that makes me feel as if I'm in a mini mall. They have gifts for all ages, tastes and pockets!"

Because I value giving different and thoughtful presents to my family or close friends, Almada13 is one of the spots I always come to, when I'm looking for something special or just for that extra personalized touch.

Almada13 is quite a big concept store gathering around 5 totally different brands in one single place, making me feel like I'm in a mini mall as they offer items for all tastes and pockets. From cork made articles (yes, necklaces to lamps!), to clothes, different paintings, cute kid's toys and to out of the box home décor, you can find anything here. They always have that hip thing you keep seeing in Portuguese lifestyle magazines, therefore I have to admit it's so hard for me to come out empty handed... Hard and rare!

Inside you also have a peculiar café, where you can taste delicious pavlovas, made of a crunchy meringue with a creamy filling. There are always several daily combinations you can try.

About me Even though I’m a genuine ‘Portuense’ (meaning born and raised in Porto), my mother’s side of the family comes from Switzerland and my father's side from England, a great mixture don’t you think? Adding to my multiculturalist environment, I’ve worked abroad for a few years in Angola and Slovakia. Travelling far away at least once a year is my biggest passion. Life taught me that the more I’m out of my comfort zone, the better, as it makes me get to know myself more. I always have a smile on my face, and by being an outspoken person I’m always out and ...

Padaria Ribeiro

Pastry perfected over 100 years

"Padaria Ribeiro" isn't just a bakery - it's an icon of the city! I imagine they have been perfecting their pastry recipes since the 19th century...

Portuguese Centre of Photography

Go to jail!

"The Portuguese Centre of Photography" in Porto is located in an ex-prison in the centre. Protip: go all the way down the street at the building's left side.

CC Bombarda

Not your regular shopping mall

"CC Bombard" in Porto is a small "shopping mall" that will surprise you with its originality, concept and products. My favourite shop there is Vertigo.

Foz, Porto's seafront

Beaches north to south

Foz and Porto's seafront is definitely for me my favourite part of the city! In summer it can get crowded, but that's because it's Porto at its best!

Parque da Cidade

The wonderful City Park

"Parque da Cidade" is Porto's Central or Hyde Park, and it's the only one in Europe with a seafront! It's one of my favourite spots to do outdoorsy things.

Bugo Art Burger

Burgers with a Portuguese twist

"Bugo Art Burger" was the first restaurant in Porto to cook special burgers. Even after all that time, it still has THAT twist! Mango chutney burger anyone?

Edíficio Transparente

Glass building at sea side

The "Edíficio Transparente" in Porto is a strange glass building with 4 floors, pleasant restaurant, cafes - and one of my favorite ocean views in the city.

Running in Porto

Get in shape!

Running in Porto is a great idea: there are many races, from 5km to marathons. I've done them all and it's a unique experience. On your marks...!

Café Santiago

Old-school Francesinha

"Café Santiago" serves perhaps my favorite Francesinha (as healthy as it looks) in Porto. And the "only" drink that goes along with it is Super Bock beer!
